Axioskop 2 plus START-UPAxioskop 2 mot plus Initial start-up Carl ZeissB 40-075 e 10/03 2-5Inserting the eyepiece reticleThe eyepieces PL 10x/23 Br. foc. are intended foruse with eyepiece reticles.The slight image shift caused by the additionalpath through the glass is taken into account onthe diopter scale by the fact that the zero pointposition is indicated not by the white dot (2-4/W),but by the red dot (2-4/R).The eyepiece reticles (2-4/1) have been adhered toscrew-in mounts (2-4/2) by the manufacturer toallow easy replacement.To replace an eyepiece reticle, only remove screw-in mount (2-4/2) with eyepiece reticle (2-4/1) andreplace it with a screw-in mount containing therequired eyepiece reticle.☞ If eyepiece reticles are inserted into the unscrewed mount by the customer, attention must bepaid to the labelling being visible the right way up after insertion.Compensation of ametropia when eyepiece reticles are usedThe correct use of an eyepiece reticle requires two focusing eyepieces, e.g. E-PL 10x/23 Br. foc., to allowthe user to compensate for differences in the visual performance of his two eyes.• Use the focusing eyepiece to focus on the line figure of the eyepiece reticle; focus on the edge of thefield of view if no eyepiece reticle is used.• Use the focusing drive to focus on the microscope image of a specimen through the eyepiece set asdescribed above.• Then use the second focusing eyepiece to focus the microscope image for the second eye. Theposition of the focusing drive on the microscope stand must not be changed.Fig. 2-4 Inserting the eyepiece reticle
